Detroit Lions see several starters return to practice in training camp

The Detroit Lions welcomed back key players to practice on August 15 at their training camp. Cornerback D.J. Reed, center Juice Scruggs, and running back Sione Vaki were among those who returned following injuries. Reed participated fully after recovering from a groin issue, while Scruggs returned after a week off due to a soft tissue injury. Vaki engaged in special teams drills, though he did not take part in team offense work. Other players, including linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez and EDGE Derrick Moore, also saw increased activity. However, several players remained sidelined, including running back Isiah Pacheco and linebacker Jimmy Rolder, who continues rehabilitation on a leg injury. Coach Dan Campbell indicated some injuries sustained in the preseason opener may not be serious but remain monitored for recovery timelines.
